mmBERT-small (Safetensors Format)

This repository provides an unofficial Safetensors-converted version of jhu-clsp/mmBERT-small. Converting the weights to Safetensors improves loading security and allows you to use the model with recent versions of the transformers library without requiring trust_remote_code=True.

Overview

mmBERT-small is a state-of-the-art multilingual encoder trained on 3T+ tokens across 1,800+ languages, utilizing novel techniques for learning low-resource languages during the annealing/decay phase.

Usage

python

from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("agentlans/mmBERT-small-safetensors")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("agentlans/mmBERT-small-safetensors")
